/**
* GCThreadLeakPreventer
*
* Prevents a call to sun.misc.GC.requestLatency pinning a webapp classloader
* by calling it with a non-webapp classloader. The problem appears to be that
* when this method is called, a daemon thread is created which takes the
* context classloader. A known caller of this method is the RMI impl. See
* http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6626680/does-java-garbage-collection-log-entry-full-gc-system-mean-some-class-called
*
* This preventer will start the thread with the longest possible interval, although
* subsequent calls can vary that. Recommend to only use this class if you're doing
* RMI.
*
* Inspired by Tomcat JreMemoryLeakPrevention.
